shaped substantially like small pins that carry out the
mechanical fastening, consist of magnets, for which, in each
pair of said permanent magnets, there is mutual attraction
and therefore closing of the fastening device when they are
arranged with the poles opposite, i.e. when one is arranged
in such a way that its positive pole faces towards the
negative pole of the other.

Abstract: The apparatus seals the edges of plastic bags containing sterile goods. The apparatus has a fusing or welding tool arranged in the path through the apparatus for detecting and welding the edge of each bag as it passes through. A printing unit near the end of the path through the apparatus prints the sealed edges. The printing unit is formed of a programmable thermal printing head. This is guided by a thermal transfer color band which moves parallel to and directly above the path through the apparatus. The color band or ribbon is guided by winder spools which are also arranged above the path. The print head is arranged between these spools to cooperate with the ink or color ribbon. A seal edge sensor is arranged in the transfer path (2) before the print head. The edge sensor is in control operative connection with the print head and the ribbon drive.

Abstract: Sustained transgene expression will be required for the vast majority of genetic diseases being considered for gene therapy. The initially high levels of expression attained with plasmid DNA (pDNA) vectors containing viral promoters, such as that from cytomegalovirus (CMV), decline precipitously to near background levels within 2 to weeks. We have constructed pDNA vectors containing the human cellular ubiquitin B (Ub) promoter and evaluated their expression in the mouse lung. Cationic lipid-pDNA complexes were instilled intranasally (IN) or injected intravenously (IV) into immunodeficient BALB/c mice. Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter gene expression from the Ub promoter was initially very low at day 2 post-administration but by day 35 exceeded the level of expression attained from a CMV promoter vector by 4- to 9-fold. Appending a portion of the CMV enhancer 5' of the Ub promoter (CMV-Ub) increased CAT expression to nearly that of the CMV promoter and expression persisted in the lung for at least three months, with 50% of day 2 levels remaining at day 84. In the liver, expression from the CMV-Ub hybrid promoter was sustained for 42 days. Since previous studies have shown that eliminating immunostimulatory CpG motifs in pDNA vectors reduces their toxicity, we constructed a CpG deficient version of the CMV-Ub vector expressing alphagalactosidase A, the enzyme that is deficient in Fabry disease, a lysosomal storage disorder. After IN or IV administration, levels of alphagalactosidase A from this vector were not only undiminished but increased 500% to 1500% by day 35. These results suggest that CpG-reduced plasmid vectors containing a CMV-Ub hybrid promoter may provide the long-term expression and efficacy required for a practical gene therapeutic.

Abstract: An optical projection system (150) includes a relay lens group (110) to produce an intermediate image from an image created by a display (100) having a first distortion, a projection lens group (130) to enlarge and project the intermediate image that passes through the relay lens group (110), while generating a second distortion in the projected image, and a reflector (140) to reflect the image enlarged by the projection lens group (130) onto a screen (S) to produce a final image having a wide viewing angle. The relay lens group (110) and projection lens group (130) are configured so that the first and second distortions compensate for a third distortion caused by the reflector (140). The use of a reflector (140) facilitates the provision of an image display apparatus of a slim design, while the generation of the "pre-distortions" can ensure that the final image is of high quality.
